People not from the South have a completely fucked idea of how we see the history of our region. Most thinking white southerners accept the horrors that were done here. These people never seem to consider the indigenous genocide required to colonize their region as comparable.

No area in America is free from the accusation of genocide. We're living on stolen land and the south isn't uniquely guilty.
In the south we respect and celebrate the things that the persecuted people provided to our culture but if you're living in Oregon etc you just larp as an Indian and call southerners racist.
I assume this post will have some weird ass person thinking this is a sign of me being a crypto fascist blah blah blah but I'm just chilling with my buddy.
